Subject: [Ohio-Talk] Justice Department Sues Uber for Overcharging People With Disabilities

The Department of Justice is seeking stories from people with disabilities or traveling companions who may have been overcharged.

A phone number and email address are below.

Please share with your networks or any interested party.

The Justice Department today filed an ADA lawsuit <https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-uber-overcharging-people-disabilities>
against
Uber for charging “wait time” fees to passengers who, because of disability, take longer than two minutes to get in their Uber car.
Individuals who believe they have been victims of disability discrimination by Uber because they, or someone they were traveling with, were charged wait time fees should contact the Justice Department at 833-591-0425 (toll-free), 202-305-6786, or send an email to Uber.Fee at usdoj.gov.

The complaint can be viewed here <https://www.ada.gov/uber_comp.pdf>.
